Having dismissed a few actresses, he settled down on the couch, poured himself a cup of tea, and took the time to enjoy it.
Seeing him so relaxed, Chen Xiaoting felt a surge of joy. She came over, crouched down, and wrapped her arms around his thigh. She asked, "Boss, how about it, are you happy?"
"You're always messing around. This is a one-off, don't expect it to happen again."
Li Zhongnan pinched the young girl's nose with amusement, then patted his thigh. "What are you crouching there for? Come sit up here and let me hold you."
Xiao Ting gave an obedient 'oh' and climbed onto his lap.
Li Zhongnan lazily wrapped his arms around her, saying "Come on, let's see if you've grown at all."
"No, not yet!"
Chen Xiaoting pouted and huffed, "You're only asking now."
In the past, whenever they were reunited after a period apart, the first thing he would do was check on her growth.
But this time, he didn't even ask in the morning or at noon!
Feeling wronged, she was quite upset.
